    Patricia Lockwood on How Illness Can Give You ‘Another You’
    Dec 5 2025
    When writer Patricia Lockwood fell ill with Covid in March 2020, she says she felt insane for months, experiencing “Brian fog” (not brain fog) and what she called “The Refrains,” where a single song lyric would play over and over in her mind. So she decided to make sense of it all by writing “a masterpiece about being confused.” We talk to Lockwood about what it was like to write while “insane” and edit while in full health, and how she found humor in the absurdity of illness. Her new novel is “Will There Ever Be Another You.” Guests: Patricia Lockwood, novelist and poet Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
